The Equal Employment Opportunity Department not only sensitizes and educates the University community on issues of discrimination, but also demonstrates the University's commitment to fair treatment of all members of its community.

It is the mission of the Equal Employment Opportunity Department to enhance the University's fundamental commitment to equality and fairness in recruitment, selection, and employment at the University by applying the tenets of our affirmative action programs to expand and support diversity throughout the University; by guaranteeing an impartial, non-adversarial setting where grievances can be resolved through counseling and mediation; and by providing related training to staff employees.
